Ethereum developers will not be able to resist ASIC-miners
V khode segodnyashnego konferents-zvonka vedushchiye razrabotchiki Ethereum reshili poka ne vklyuchat' v tekushcheye obnovleniye protokola kod predlozheniya ProgPoW, pozvolyayushchego snizit' vliyaniye ASIC-maynerov na ekosistemu. Ob etom soobshchayet CoinDesk.
Po mneniyu uchastnikov, dannoye predlozheniye pered implementatsiyey nuzhdayetsya v tshchatel'nom audite. Posledniy dolzhen podtverdit', chto eto resheniye deystvitel'no privedet k snizheniyu effektivnosti mayninga na ASIC-ustroystvakh. ProgPoW prizvano sdelat' GPU- maynerov boleye konkurentosposobnymi, a set', sledovatel'no, boleye detsentralizovannoy.
During today's conference call, the leading developers of Ethereum decided not to include the ProgPoW proposal code in the current protocol update, which allows reducing the impact of ASIC miners on the ecosystem. It is reported by CoinDesk.
According to the participants, this proposal needs a thorough audit before implementation. The latter should confirm that this solution will indeed lead to a decrease in mining efficiency on ASIC devices. ProgPoW is designed to make GPU miners more competitive, and the network, therefore, more decentralized.
Recall that the activation of the hardfork Constantinople in the Ethereum network should take place on or about February 27 at block # 7,280,000.
